dEVELOPMENT
Driven by the fascination of the Concorde and the lack of an electric-driven semi-scale RC model, Harald Matussek and Lars Habedank engaged themselves in developing an impeller powered Concorde.
From the very beginning, the focus of this project lay on the "scaleness" of the model.
It was not only the original's shape and appearance which have been transferred but also realistic flight characteristics. To add such realism it was important to have an extremely lightweight construction so that this model could fly at a speed that fits its dimensions.
The fuselage and wing combine scale appearance with lightweight construction. After years of challenging development, an ideal balance between multiple power plants, wing profiles, and fuselage constructions was tested in normal operation. Combined, this leads to a very satisfying result.
All fiberglass parts and the custom made retract legs are designed and produced in Germany.
SPECIFICATIONS
The whole model is a fiberglass vacuum sandwich construction with a weight of in sum 5.1kg. The fuselage consists of 2 parts, easy for transportation (~1.8m and ~1.6m long). Besides the fuselage, there are 3 other parts: left-wing, right-wing, and center section. A special retract was developed with a realistic Concorde design.
The retract works electrically and has 2 braked wheels on each main retract (4 braked wheels in total). This is necessary for flying on a paved runway.
The kit includes all fiberglass parts (already painted white), retracts, wheels and brakes. An additional kit to install the realistic nose movement is available.
It can either be powered by two 90mm EDFs with 12S 8000mAh Lipos, or one or two turbines. The take-off weight is between 11-12 kg depending on the setup.
